The Christina Collection - Merry Christmas 2017 :D


I challenged myself to make a Christmas/New Years card with each of Christina's Addition bundles, and this my Christmas card using the Masculine Collection :D As soon as I saw this star stamp, I just knew it belonged on a Christmas card, although I'm also dying to try colouring it with Copics too :D that would make for a fun bright card :D This card design was really simple, just heat embossing multiple images, watercolouring with metallic paints, then adding the sentiment, but I think this combination of Gold and really Dark Navy works wonderfully for a Christmas look :D Hope you liked the cards :D

Merry Christmas 2017 :D

 

I love these two characters, they're so adorable and really easy to make too! I just followed the picture on the front of the packaging as a guide, but I did change Mrs Claus's hair, and also some of the colours too, but that's the brilliant thing, everything is separate so you can really personalise it :D You could even make them the recipient of the card dressed up as Santa/Mrs Claus too :D I love the way Santa has his arm round Mrs Claus, so I've made this card specially for some friends that got married this year, so it's their first Christmas as a married couple :D Hope you liked the card! I must use these dies lots next year, there are so many possibilities you could probably make 100 characters and they'd all have their own personality!! MERRY CHRISTMAS!!! :D :D :D
